Die'sire samples and More news.

Helloo All..

Hope everyone has had a good start to their week?

I am still showing samples from the Die'sire team shows On this post so then we will be moving on to some other creations , I am finishing off another baby blanket and Have been honoured to make it to semi- final for the Heartfelt Creations team so I am working hard on that plus some commissions I need to finish before the end of next week when I leave my job for pastures new.

I would love to do some magazine work so this will be my next challenge I think to be accepted by some mags and work hard on that with them.
I am still dreaming of a job in this industry  and hope that one day this will come true... whats your dreams?

This was the first card I made for the Die'sire samples, it was an embossing folder from Craftwell who make the Ebosser die cutter which is really a fabulous piece of kit.

I also had this background to use from Craftwell and couldn't decide for the longest time how to make it stand out so I did some stamping with the owls and masked the branch before adding the owls so they perching. Some clouds used as a stopper to the easel card finished it nicely. Pretty  kiddy card I thought., what doesn't come over on this picture is the glorious sparkle throughout the moon and stars area , so pretty.

Here is a close up of the main flower  on the card photo'd below, I made them all with a quilling dye for Dahlia's. Die'sire.

This one looks wonky lol i promise it isn't lol its just way pic came out but I love the colours and I embossed the pattern from Embossilicious for Crafter's companion into the prettiest paper that already had a lace like pattern into it. Of course all the flowers are made using their quilling dies in matching paper from Kanban.

These ones aren't so stampy , vintage and grungy which is my favourite style all inky, or paint and clay etc but these I enjoyed making with the team too. And making a new Pal ( you know who you are lol) All of these samples were shown on Ideal world and Create and Craft on the 20/21st of this month and I had a blast making them.

Sooo now I have 2 Birthday cards and boxes to make and my 2 pieces for entering into the Heartfelt Creations DT ... Heartfelt have announced we are in the semi finals so wish me luck and why not peak at their blog.. it has a lot of inspiration on it always.

It's the Aly Paly show again in 2 weeks and I am looking forward to this sooooo much for several reasons, firstly my son and his lovely lady are coming home to go with me to the show( this would be unheard of if Sons girly wasn't crafty like mumma) lol  so I get to see them and go to the awesome Big stamp and scrapbook show at our own Alexandra Palace  and see my fabulous crafty pals from Craftwork Cards which is always a huge treat. Anyone thinking of coming along would have a great time I loved it when I went last year and of course got to meet the lovely Emma Williams from the Craftwork DT there too.

Ok back to work.

Have a great week , Back soon
